Can any subscriber give me a better citation to something I can reconstruct only in my memory?
In the 1970's, when the NYC Municipal Reference Library was still high up in the Municipal Building, they had a sort of aerial-photograph landmap of Manhattan (or was it all of New York City)? It was oblong-bound in green corduroy, with photographic plates of straight-down aerial views of the city, about 1" = 200' - roughly the same as the more recent Bromley/Sanborn series of maps of the city. I have never seen another one.
I'm looking for one for Queens now, and can't reconstruct the citation (and thus publisher and coverage) of the one I remember.
Is any other subscriber familiar with a similar series of photographic maps?
